          |  | Galveston is blessed by 
            nature with a mild climate, the average temperature is 70°, miles 
            of sandy beaches and an abundance of birds and marine life. |  |   
          |  | The city is compact, uncrowded. |   
          |  | Housing is readily available 
            and less expensive than in most cities. |   
          |  | Retail stores and professional 
            services abound. |    
         
          |  |  | The Island is full of culture, from 
            classical music to all-night rock, from street festivals to lectures 
            by distinguished scholars. |   
          |  | In 1993, Galveston was chosen as one 
            of the 50 Fabulous Places to Raise Your Family. |   
          |  | Galveston received the US Conference 
            of Mayors' 1995 City Livability Award. |
